both involve the main character going back in time to the warring states period, and both have advanced future knowledge about a skill, in Nobunaga no Chef its cooking and in jin its medicine.

Dr. Stone and Jin fit sort of a similar niche of a person ends up in some different civilization that lacks our current scientific knowledge. Dr. Stone is the over-the-top shounen version of this premise -- having survived an apocalypse, Senku is the only person that can restore human civilization, with his super-power level command of math and science, and for a manga about science there's still a whole lot of shounen style fighting. In the meantime, Jin is the super otaku seinen version of this trope. Jin just happens to be a neurosurgeon, and so uses his ultra specialized medical knowledge to save whatever  read more

Both Isekai Yakkyoku and Jin are about highly accomplished medical specialists from our world being transported to another that does not have our medical technology. Jin is the realistic take on this premise, where he is transported back in time to 1800s Japan, at the start of modern western medicine. It delves deep into extremely technical medical knowledge. Isekai Yakkyoku is the fantasy version, where the protagonist not only has ridiculous pharmaceutical knowledge, but also the super power to create any material he knows the chemical formula to, thus skipping all the hard work of having to recreate chemistry.

Modern surgeons returning to a past wherein medicine and surgery were not efficient at all compared to today's procedures. As a source of important knowledge the main character is able to ameliorate the lives of many inhabitants in the time they spawned in, making them famous and revered. They proudly hold their creed of saving any patient they can, even with the lacking materials and shortage of doctors with sufficient knowledge.

Both medical series involve the protagonists revolutionizing the medical field within the world they're in, the portrayal of medical procedures are graphic and are explained thoroughly. Difference is that Jin isn't technically an isekai but more of a time-travel trope and is much more grounded.

Similar situations for the MC, both are set in a similar era and are time-travel. The MCs in both use their unique skillset to help the lords of their respective domains and attain fame and glory (more or less) for it.

Both series utilize and explore the concept of "introducing modern technologies to a more primitive culture", including the reactions and political developments that may be bought about as a result of said technologies. While Gate focuses more on introducing modern idealologies and the technologies themselves to a 'swords-and-sorcery' setting, Jin focuses on practically applying modern knowledge in a more 'grounded' primitive historical setting. Jin is more drama-focused than Gate, containing significantly less action, comedy and fan-service.

Both are fascinating in-depth views in to the medieval Japanese society during the Edo period. Both stories are also centered around a sensei character who uses his vast knowledge to understand the people around him to solve their problems.

They are both about doctors practicing modern medicine during the middle ages/Edo time period. One doesn't explain the procedure being performed wrong 9 out of 10 times and wasn't cancelled after about 20 chapters though...

Both great medical dramas, Black Jack is the original medical manga while Jin contains an interesting time travel element. Both good reads :) 
reportRecommended by Hana-Lu
Jin and Thermae Romae are both series that are focused on a protagonist who finds themselves the victim of spontaneous time-travel, using their knowledge of modern customs and technologies in order to further their craft for the good of others within the time period they reside. While Jin is about a modern Japanese surgeon stuck in the Edo period of Japan, Thermae Romae is about an ancient Roman architect traveling forward in time to modern Japan.

Both feature somewhat realistic takes on disease treatment and management.
